Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Rain Tiger of Will, haha.
Excellent.
For this next one, concentrate your Earth Chakra inwards. This is a bit new as you were dealing with solid things beforehand. Build up your chakra to become sticky (perhaps add a bit of that Water Chakra) and spit it at my clone here.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

*I concentrate my Earth chakra within myself, and I keep it in its chakra form. Once I have channeled enough I also add water chakra inside of me which mixes with the Earth chakra. By doing this, I am able to create mud because water and earth makes mud. I then channel the sticky liquid inside of me which comes out through my mouth, and I spit it at your clones face blocking its vision.

This is a good technique to use because it can blind your opponent if in their eyes, and if on the body the mud could harden and prohibit movement. By doing this it could give you an upper hand in the battle.

To avoid this technique you çould quickly jump out of the way by using chakra in your feet. You could create a pillar of earth that could block its path. You could also over power it with a Fire of lightning techniques because fire would harden it and make it crumble and lightning has a natural affinity over earth and water

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

You covered everything, as usual, however, aiming it towards the feet could also be a good tactic, to stop them in their movements.
One more thing - you also stop explosive tags and other potentially dangerous single hand tools in the air with this. Like Minato's FTG.

Description: The user spits a thick globule of mud at the target. If aimed correctly, it can blind the target's vision and choke them. It can also be used to create a sticky patch on the ground.

Alright, take a look at that cliff.
Proceed to send your chakra towards it to cause bits and pieces of the rock to fall down.
How might this be utilized offensively in battle?

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Ok
*I start by sending chakra from my feet into the earth. Once I have sent the chakra into the Earth, I start to make the Earth's physical form change on the cliff. Causing it to crumble and break apart. And the pieces fall down the cliff and smash into the ground below.*

This technique is useful if you are battling multiple enimies on a cliff. You could make the cliff break apart and fall to the ground below. Taking your enimies with it.
To avoid this technique, if you sense it starting to crumble you cold try to manuver onto stable land.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Okay, I'll go into that with more detail later, it's a definition I made up myself...when you learn some new jutsus, I shall teach you. ^_^ Great job, as usual.

Descripton: This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside.

Mkay, much like the mudshot technique earlier, proceed to release a flow of earth chakra throughout the earth so that it surges towards my clone, throwing him off balance.
How might you think adding more Suiton chakra to this would affect the technique?
Also, why is it important to knock your opponent off balance in a fight?

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

*I begin by flowing my earth chakra into the ground, giving me the ability to manipulate the Earth. Once I have created a flow of Earth chakra into the ground, I begin to also add in a flow of my Suiton chakra. By doing this the ground starts to turn muddy. I continue to flow the combination of Earth and Water chakras into the ground closer to your clone causing the ground between to also tun into mud. As the mud reaches your clone, your clone becomes off balance and slips into the mud (because it is slippery and hard to move across)*

By adding more Suiton chakra into this jutsu would increase the "wateryness and speed of the justu" while adding more Doton would make it thicker right? Certain situations might need a rise in more Suiton chakra or Doton chakra into the jutsu.

It is very important to keep yor opponent off balance because you will keep them at a disadvantage. Make them unable to finish preforming handseals and to open up attacks that you would he able to make without much contest sense they are not completely balanced.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

You answered in a perfect manner. o_O I have nothing else to add...for now.
Anyways, we're not quite done with this combo. Proceed to form the handseals of Ram → Horse → Dragon in order and then send your chakra into the mud you just created and formulate a dragon out of it.
The dragon should be able to spit mud at my clone.
Be specific on where you aim the mudshots and why you decided to aim them there.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

"Time to practice handseals"
*Ai begin practicing the 3 hand seals of Ram, Horse, and Dragon. In that order. I start reciting them slowly, but after a few tries I pick up the pac iluntil I can finish them in a quick 2-3 seconds. To be sure, I again recite the handseals. I then send my chakra into the ground and use that chakra to form a shapeless glob that rises from the mud. I manipulate the mud with my chakra to form a dragon's head. The dragon's head comes out of mud and I make it fire a globe of mud at your clone, by manipulating the chakra iside of it, which would restraining its movements. *

This move used in conjunction with the previous jutsu would restrain the opponent even more and would stop you opponent from moving,froming handseal, ect. Also its pretty bad ass that a dragons head it firing mud, when would you see that in your life.

To avoid this jutsu you could obviously try and avoid it by manuvering, but you could also over power it with lightning or fire, As lightning has an affinity over Earth and Water, but fire could harden it and take away the stickyness of it.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Perfect response. However, also remember that you can aim those mudshots wherever you please and strike your opponent in their most vulnerable spots. Remember that the dragon itself is also an obstacle and hide vision of you.

Alright, for this next one. Send your chakra through the ground, and then cause huge rock pillars to rise from it, surrounding my clone together as it does so.
Then, proceed to cage him by forming a prison with the rock pillars.
How might this also be utilized defensively?

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

*I send my chakra into the ground and use the chakra to raise multiple pillars that form a square around your clone. The square has 4 pillars of rocks on each side. Once the square is completed, I countinue to form a roof over the top, by molding the pillars to go 90° from the top of each pillar and meet in the middle. Once your clone has been successfully trapped, I walk over to the cage and start laughing.*

"How does it feel to be in there?"

One of the ways it could be used defensively is to cage in an opponent while they are trying to preform a jutsu and disrupt the by creating the cage. I'm not very sure about the other way, but you could use the cage on your self I guess and block attacks heading toward you.
For blocking this jutsu, you could release non focused ration out and destroy the pillars. When the cage is forming you could jump up in the air after using the chakra in your feet. Because it seems like it would take longer because it is very difficult to do.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

o_O...
It feels...great...
And there will be better defensive jutsus you will learn later. xD

(Doton: Ganchūrō no Jutsu) - Earth Release: Rock Pillar Prison Technique
Rank: C
Type: Defence/supplementary
Range: Short/Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After performing the required hand seals Rat → Horse → Dog → Snake and they then create a large amount of rock pillars from under ground. They can then be controlled to surround their opponent and create a bamboo-like thicket of rock.

Alright, for this next one, build up earth chakra within your hands and proceed to slam the ground before you, creating a huge wall in front of you for defense.
Make sure you state how big it is and what kinds of attacks it would block against.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

*I start to concentrate my chakra and flow it to my hands. I use use chakra to make my hands become a little heavy, and I slam my hands to the ground. When my hands reach the ground a wall of Earth rises up because I released the built up chakra in my hands into the ground. The wall rises up 10 feet into the air and is 3 feet thick.*

This could be used to stop water, and wind jutsus, because most water and wind Justus ding have enough destructive force to puncture it, but lightning jutsus could tear right through the wall. Also the wall blocks the vision of your opponent giving you the element of surprise.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Perfect. However, keep in mind that your sides aren't protected when using this so take extra precautions.

(Doton: Doroku Gaeshi) - Earth Release: Earth Shore Return
Rank: C
Type: Defence
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After striking the ground with their hands, the user creates a large wall of earth in front of him/her. The defence is not perfect though, since a hard or drilling impact can puncture the wall. Also, since this technique only guards frontal attacks, the enemy can easily attack from the side or even from above.

So this jutsu is somewhat similar to one we've learned before.
In what ways can a huge mudslide be used for?

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

A mudslide could be used for many things, If you hare against many ninjas and you are behind in numbers. A mudslides could take the opponents away very quickly. It also can be used one on one to disrupt your opponent and in both scenarios you will have stopped the opponent from attacking, which gives you the upper hand. Mudslides could also be used for using it as a sticky substance to trap your opponent(s).

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Perfect! You can also "ride" it, but it wouldn't work as efficiently as a wave of water. Adding more suiton, to this, however, also increases the speed of it too.

(Doton: Doro Hōshi) - Earth Release: Mud Spore

Description: This technique lets the user summon a river of mud infront of them. This technique can have water added to it to speed up the flow and increase its power.

For this next one, first use the handseals of Boar to Ox, then proceed to slam the ground with your hand, sending Doton chakra through it towards my clone.
Then, manipulate the Earth around my clone to spiral in itself...like quicksand almost, and then kill my clone as it does so.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

*I preform the handseals Boar and Ox and I channel my Doton chakra to my hands while I make they hand seals. I then immediately slam my hands down to the ground releasing the chakra as soon as I make contact, and I proceed to manipulate the Earth creating the Earth to spiral over itself to make your clone sink. Then, I throw a kuni at its head as it is chest deep in the ground.

Re: Kiritsugu teaches me to move Dirt :D

Perfect. So here, we introduce a new concept, called zoning.
Originally a term from a game that I play a lot, it basically means manipulating or forcing your opponent to go where you want to. For example, a jutsu from the sky like Lightning Fang would keep them from going into the air to use jutsus there, and a move such as Swamp of the Underland would prevent them from staying on the ground. Lastly, something that is very dangerous close range, such as Lightning Plasma Barrier would discourage them from getting near you to use Taijutsu or such.
